Ellen in NYC

Well Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week for the season Fall/Winter 2008 is a week away and I look forward to giving everyone a update on what to expect from the hairdressers point of view. This is my 12th year doing fashion week and I always look forward to it. I am also going to be on the Project Runway team on Friday the 8th its great energy and fun to see the designer’s final looks.

My friend Nicole and I went shopping yesterday. We went to Woodbury Commons in New York State just off exit 17 on the thruway. We were on the hunt! We both love just going from store to store putting the things we might consider buying on hold with the sales people for a couple of hours. This gives us time to look for other fabulous finds and not to make snap decisions. Then, we’ll go have a cup of coffee and the debating begins. We discuss the pros and cons of everything we put on hold, and decide whether or not to return to claim our booty.

I am so happy to have my website available again. I did not appreciate the last one I had until I let it lapse, and didn’t have access to it. I guess its a lot like so many things we get used to and don’t really appreciate until they are gone. Appreciation is a good word to start 2008 with, I look back at 2007 and with appreciation I look at the real learning and growing year it was, I got to visit Singapore and Chile through Redken and experience it with my good friend Justin Issac, what a gift.
